OYAL ITALIAN OPERA, Covent-garden. There will In next week be five opera nights, viz., Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and satarday. Various in lications are perceptible in the political horizon which reveal to the initiated the desire of Government to shorten the Parliamenta r y sess i on. • Other symptoms, too, are very apparent, showing the frail and feeble tenure by which they cling to the benches on the right hand of the Speaker. In the course of this very week they have suffered two defeats, and have themselves withdrawn two mea sures—all of them tokens of grave import. In the. case of the Writs Registration Bill, withdrawn h the Lord Advocate on Thursday evening, 4 . 1 a s n o t p - sition was so stron g an d so unanini: not should that it i surprising that it s promote - . should think discretion the better part of v was professf::l7, alour.

But its ob j ec tors, while readil y a d m i tt i ng these ends to be highly desirable, proposed to were of opinion th a t th e means be a dopted were wholly i ne ffi c i ent, an d in themselves undesirable.

Consequently, our municip a l system is warmly cherished by the people, and all local rights and privileges jealously preserved. Paris may be France, but London is not England. The centralising tendency of the Lord Advocate's mea sure was, therefore, one of the strongest objections to it, but hon. members were not slow in bringing forward other reasons. It was contended in favour of the bill that it would effect a great saving, bu considerable doubt was expressed es to its ultimate economy. Instead of the various registrars now scattered throughout the country, it is proposed to have all the work of registration done at one general office in Edinburgh. The Lord Advocate argued that it must be cheaper to employ one central staff than twenty local registrars ; but, on a close exa mination, this logic is not conclusive. Sir J. FER. oussoN, in opposing the second reading, asserted that in his opinion the establishment of a central general office would add largely to the expense, since a great number of clerks would have to be employed P °B "aaing that local knowledge which would be indispensable to the transactions of the business of the office. The commissioners who sometime since examined into the matter, and upon whose report the present pressure is mainly founded, stated that th9y feared it Would be impossible to in the House of Commons—what possibly can Mr. carry outthischange which they themselves desired, WILLIAMS have been at now, so as to call down unless it were done very gradually, and the reason upon himself words of reprehension that certainly they gave for this apprehension was the enormous sound like an exaggeration ? What has he staff which would be required. It is already ad. been at ? Those, however, who are already aware mitted that the fees both in Edinburgh and in the of the nature of last night's proceedings in the counties are much too high, but the new measure lower house of the legislature will understand, only of reform not only allows them to remain at their toopainfully, upon the instant, that allusion is here present height for two years more, since the transa made to the opposition raised, we do lot hesitate to fer is not to take place until after December, say, to the singularly discreditable opposition raised 1866, but it renders it competent for the by Mr. WILLIAM WILLIAMS, M.P. for the borough Government, when the act is once in force, to cf Lambeth, to the propos e d grant of £20,000 to raise the salaries of any of the officers to any amount Sir ROWLAND HILL, A grant, recollect, which which Parliament may agree to.

There seemed simple gratitude to a Great Public Benefactor ! The to be an impression that the new measure would raising of any objection whatever to the passing of give reason for a considerable amount of patronage, a vote of £20,000 as a grant to a man like Sir which might under some circumstances be liable to RowLaam HILL we take to have been nothing less abuse. Sir J.

The end of the partment—and who now, in the seventieth year of debate was, as we have said, that the Lord Advo his age, having nobly earned repose from his long cate withdrew the measure, remarking that he did labours—it is suggested by the QUEEN herself, in not feel inclined to press it from the manifest dise a Royal Message to Parliament, shall rece i ve inclination of the Scotch members to support it.

M ACADAM, another sideration of th e p ros an d cons. great benefactor, another of the great developers of modern civilisation—also (as in the instance of Sir ROWLAND HILL), by the suggestion of a very simple idea, yet an idea that, with all its simplicity, had never before occurred to any man, a scheme as simple in its contrivance as COLUMBUS'S plan for making an egg stand on end—MACADAM for his suggestion of breaking blocks of granite into little bits and strewing them over the highway, there to be ground into a level road by the very traffic it was to be the means of facilitating— MACADAM received in his time from the nation £lOO,OOO sterling ! Her MAJESTY suggests that Parliament should give Sir ROWLAND, as author of the penny postage system, not £lOO,OOO, but merely £20,000, after a life of severe labour, and when he is already in the seventieth year of his age—and, immediately upon this gracious suggestion from the Crown has been made, Mr. WILLIAMS, the member for Lambeth, interposes between the Nation and the great National Benefactor with his most indecorous, his most discreditable, his little less than disgraceful objection. It was an objection only heard with pain and impatience, immediately to be set aside by the House of Commons as one altogether of its kind simply beneath con tempt. But, the discomfort of it is this—that it should ever have been raised —even for an instant— even by a captious economist, such as this member for the borough of Lambeth. If it were possible we should like to have the record of this flagrant gaucherie on the part of Mr. WILLIAMS erased from the entries upon Hansard. We should be re joiced, if we could, to obliterate the incident from recollection. he Marquis of CLANRICARDE is resolved to keep up the question of the enlistment of Irish emi grants. In this respect he has acted wisely, and due credit should be awarded to him for his zeal and perseverance in the furtherance of this desired object, He has the satisfaction of having partially succeeded at last in his attempt, for Earl RUSSELL so far conceded as to promise to produce the papers required by the noble marquis. It is very gratify.. ing that such should be the case, for whatever turn events may take nothing can be more provoking than the mystery which has prevailed on the subject of America since the commencement of the present session. Day after day and week after week have questions been put to the various members of the Government, but little or nothing has been gained thereby. By common consent all official personages agreed to let the matter go by default, as it were, and vague allusions and very indefinite remarks were all the utterances that the sage and sapieat mem bers of our present Cabinet allowed themselves to deliver, or the Legislature to receive. Whether warned by all he has seen end heard, or getting in different at last to such quasi friends as his trans. atlantic allies have proved themselves to be, Earl RUSSELL has taken rather a new tone in the affair, and spoken more in the manner which is suitable to one in his high position than he has done hitherto during the course of the long war in America. So far this is as it should be, but at the same time it must be borne in mind that there is a great differ. epee between voluntary service and enforced aid. It is quite another thing for a Minister to come to the H.otne and impart information over important topics, and for him to pooh pooh all attempts at its elucidation, and decry the endeavours of those who seek eagerly and anxiously for further tidings of its style and character. When Lord CLANRICARDE before spoke on this subject it suited the Foreign Secretary to meet the demand in a very unpropi tiatory manner. He fired up on behalf of his favour ites, and tried th a t most wrotel'eed of ar guments the to quoque princip!e of defeece. The Confederates e, and had b ro k en through had d one so much de,--,nag all conventior:..'i rules ard infringed nation- ' the laws of oy their conduct in regard to the building of ships, and soon. This did not answer the pur pose in view, for no ono beyond his own immediate circle was at all impressed with the indignant re marks or convinced by the plausible but partial statement. It is worth while to study the speech of Lord CLANRICARDE attentively, and dwell on its most striking particulars. Thus only can we ar rive at a fair estimate of the affair, and judge of the length to which the Federals have gone in defiance of prescribed limits and in the face of known regu lations. He put the case very forcibly by pointing out the marked difference that existed in the con duct of the Government towards the Northern and Southern States. They had given every facility to one of the belligerents, and put every obstacle in the way of the other side. In like manner the en listment for foreign countries had never yet been carried on to such an extent as at present. In England also this practice, too, was prevailing, and he had heard from many quarters relative to it . The manner in which these men were engaged was very ingenious, bat, on reflection, most far-sighted people can see through the dodge, as it may be termed. It is given out that the immense loss of men in America has occasioned a deficit in the number of workmen, and that these immigrants were to supply their place. The noble marquis gave some details of the extraordinary manner in which some of the unfortunate fellows had been treated who were deluded into coming over on the specious pleas present e d to them in the insidious arguments employed by other agents of the Federal Govern ment. When they had landed strong drink was g i v en to them, and they were advised to join the ranks of the Federal army. Some were turned out who refused, and forced t o li ve upon the charity of their fellow..countrymen, others shared a worse fate. That it is time for our Government to do something will be allowed by the most indif ferien army when they know th a t a general of the Fede acomplained of th em sending so many r t, foreigners. Hs also stated that they were not in a fit state when sent, for many had been drugged, and when they came to their senses refused to do duty, which was natural enough considering they had been tricked. " J these cases the men were LADIES' BATHI NG D R ESSES.—What a remarkably uncomfortable, inconvenient dress English ladies adopt for bathing.

FUNERAL OF MARSHAL PELISSIER, The funeral of Marsh a l Pelissier, Duke of Mala koff, took place on Thursday in the Church of the Invalides. Military honours were paid to his re mains by the veterans of the Hospital in the inte rior of the hotel, and one on the outside by a brigade of infantry of the Imperial Guard, two squadrons of cavalry, a battalion of the Garde de Paris, half a mounted squadron of the same Guard, a division of nine battalions of the Ist Corps d'Arreee, and two squadrons and two batteries of artillery. These troops were commanded by Marshal Magnan, and were fekmed in close column on the esplanade facing the grand entrance. Two salutes of 13 guns were fired by a half battery placed on the quay of the Invalides—one salute at the commencement of the funeral ceremony, and the other at the conclusion when the troops defiled. Tho Church of the lava fides was entirely hung with black cloth, orna mented with the Marshal's arms. A rich catafalque was raised in the middle of the nave; twelve non commissioned officers, four of the Guard and eight of the Line, stood round the coffin. After the reli gious service the coffin was placed in a hearse drawn by six horses, whiob, according to custom, walked across the large courtyard to the outer gate of the Hotel des Invalides. The corners of the pall were held by Marshal Vaille.nt, General Marquis d'Haut poul, Count Wale wski, and M. Mercier Lacombe, Director of the Interior in Algeria. When the cortege arrived at the external gate all the troaps detied before the ecfnu. The funeral cortege then returned to the church, and the coffin was lifted from the hearse and carried by twelve non-commis sioned officers to the vault prepared for it. All the Ministers, all the Marshals, Admirals, and General officers present in Paris, all the Emperor's military household, the Algerian deputation, and deputations from the great bodies of the State as s i s t e d at th e I ceremony. Colonel M'Murdo on the Volunteers, On Thursday the Ist Suffolk Administrative Bat talion of Volunteers, which has been encamped at Great Barton, about three miles from Bury St. Edmund's, was reviewed by Colonel INPMurde, inspector -General of Volunteers. The camp equi page, consisting of 90 tents, three large marquees, 1,126 blankets, 80 leather buckets, &c., was supplied from the Government stores at Harwich. The task of pitching the tents was perform e d by thirty or forty members of the B ury and other corps, un d er the direction of Adjutant Barnardiston. The tents were arranged in two wings, with a broad way up the centre I the privatee'ten is being in front, and those of the officers behind While the tents and two mar quees appropriated t o t h e use of the staff forme d a line from flank to flank in rear of the whole. At the reeiew on Thursday about 400 Volunteers were as• sembled, and the troops were under the general com mand of Colonel Anstruther. A variety of move ments of the usual character having been executed, Colonel M'Murdo said he had come down expecting much, and had not been disappointed. He hoped befare the battalion left the camp every man would know how to pitch and strike his tent. He was pleased to see that the arms of the Suffolk Volunteers were in good order; he was satisfied alsO with their ap pearance physically as men fit to bear arms, and he hoped that when he next reviewed them he should see the e fact of the capitation grant upon their uni forms. Their pouches should be larger, End should carry at least 60 rounds of ball cartridge, for the day might come in w hi c h they wou ld look about them to see whe re t h ey coul d ge t more ammu nition. Great precision of movement was all fudge in b att l e , a l t h oug h it was all right on the parade-ground of regular-troops, To his mind the Volunteer should be a sober-minded, God-fearing man, earnest, and determined to help his country at the pinch, to l ear n as much of mili tary drill as w as necessary for absolute warfare, to be obedient t o. , hi s o ffi cer s, and to trust t o those officers pl ac i ng hi m ia a position where hi s qualities as a b rave stea dy man mi ght make hi m useful in the d ay o f b attle. precision of movem ent might be thr own to t h e w i n d s , although the main points should be accurately taken up, and all move ments should b e so we ll k no wn that they could b e executed "at th e d ou bl e ," Now that Voluntee rs took a large sum y ear l y f ro m the public purse th e y had imposed up on th emse l v es a grave responsibility, and he hoped th a t t h e y would work up to what was expected of th em , no t only by the country an d the Government, but also by their sweethearts and wives. shot without trial." Surely , we have come to a pretty pass, if our countrymen and the subjects of our Sovereign, are to be inveigled by false pre tences, taken far away from the protection of their own laws, and then murdered in reality, because it is all a sham about martial law when they were only mock soldiers, having been dupes and victims from the outset. The noble marquis made some earnest observations in conclusion as to the necessity of doing something to controvert these mat ceuvres. He very truly said that he did not want war, but if he was asked did he propose to go to war if remon strances failed, he would reply, What were we ever to go to war for if not for maintaining the honour and dignity of the country. This sentence should be stereotyped in the minds of our vacillat ing Government and timid politicians. " Way did we pay thirty millions a year for our army and navy if these forces were not to be employed in maintaining the honour of the country, and afford ing protection to our fellow-countrymen." This is the only right way of putting the question, and until honour w e and ave the Ministers who will cons id er nat i onal rights s s of our subj ec t s t o b e t h e h primary object of their efforts and the legitimate goal of their exertions, we shall always be an noyed by these casualties. Every State in tarn will use our advantages, and take care to abase in pretty strong terms if we do not concede to them every iota of their requests. It is strange that a more general erpressioa of indignation is not manifested by the House concerning the con duct of the Government. The session is wearing away, and speeches, however brilliant, will not remedy matters if once the recess arrives without anything decided or definite being done. It is the same in America, the same in Prussia. We are at a discount, and the old notion that an Englishman need only proclaim his birth-place to be treated with respect, is now quite out of date. The men now in office cannot much longer carry on the affairs of the country; but they will leave a legacy behind them that for many years may not be altogether got rid of. When once the prestige of a country is injured, it is long before it can be restored ; it is more difficult to rehabilitate a reputation thin to make one sometimes. [REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.] AMERICA.

Oa Thursday morning Grant, discovering Lee's position between the North and South Anna rivers to be too formidable for assault, recrossed the North Anna, and, during the night, moved by the laft to the Pamunky, which he crossed on Friday and Saturday at Hanover Town, 12 miles from Richmond. His official despatches from that place, to 2 p.m. on the 19th inst., report his army to be three miles south of the river. Lee is reported, upon the discovery of Grant's movement, to have swung round his left into a position confronting the Federale, and completely still holds Hanover Court House, and is under the command of General Breckenridge. Secretary Stanton announces that Butler is now acting only on the defensive, and that Gen. Baldy Smith, with the 18th Army Corps, has been trans ferred, via Fortress Monroe, to the Potomac Army. Whitehouse, on the York River, is now Grant's base of supplies. Sherman reports an engagement between Mac pherson and the Confederates, near Dallas, on the 28th inst., in which the Confederates lost 250 men in killed and wounded, and 300 prisoners. The Federal loss is stated at 500. It is believed that General Johnston will continue to retire, and defer a general engagement until he reaches Atlanta, where he expects to be reinforced by General Polk's army. Confederates Forrest and Buford have returned to Western Kentucky. Fears are entertained of another attack upon Paducah. The Federal ganboats Granite City and Nyanga were captured in the Caledsian River by the Con federates on the 6th.

The Confederates then retired. At the same time Grant ordered an attack by his centre and left, which was not executed, owing to tie order failing to reach General Wright. Hancock, on the right, alone ad vanced, and took possession of the Confederate skirmishing line. Warren, on the Federal left, is uported to hold a position within seven miles of Richmond. Lee's right rests on the Ceickahominy, below Mechanicsvilie. It is unoffi c i a ll y reported from Kingston, G eorg ia, that the C on f e d erates attacked Sherman yes t er day mornirg, and were repui se d a t the end of two and a half hou rs ' fi ght i ng.

A large iron steamship, the largest carrying ship nut on the Tyne, the screw steamer Erin, the property of the National Steam Navigation Com pany, will be launched from Messrs. Palmer Bro thers' iron shipbuilding yard at Jarrow on the 18th inst. She is 3,200 tons burden, 360 ft. long in the keel, 385 ft. over all, and 28ft. depth of hold. Two other large iron steamships, of exactly the same model as the Erin, are also building at Messrs. Pal mers', and three others will shorty be laid down of larger size, tdl for the National Steam Navigation Company. Iron shipbuilding generally on the Tyne is brisk. In addition to the abovementicned vessels and others, Messrs. Palmer are building nine large vessels under Lloyd's survey, and the other large iron shipbuilding yards on the Tyne are propor tionally well employed, The importation of Spanish grass, which is now extensively used in paper making, is assuming large proportions on the Tyne. Large warehouses are being erected i❑ the Tyne dock for its stowage, and many thousands of tons of it are stacked on the wharves of these docks. It is brought into the Tyne by the vessels engaged in the Spanish coke trade, which bring it for re►urn cargoes at a few shillings per ton, and the rail• ways deliver it to the paper manufacturers in most parts of the country. The northern coal trade is at present in a very healthy condition, and most of the collieries are well employed. There is also an ex cellent demand for coke. The enormous dredging operations—there being nothing like them, it is supposed, in the country —which are being carried out by the River Tyne Improvement Commissioners, are having a wonderful effect upon the trade of this river, as vessels can now sail at all times of the tide, and large ships can now put to sea with cargoes of coals never dreamt of a dozkn years ago. During the past few days one of the Black Ball liners, the Castlemain, belonging to Liverpool, sailed from the Tyne laden with 82i keels of steam coal, and a new iron ship, the Lancashire, left the port laden with 77 keels of coat; a number of large ships of equal tonnage are loading steam coals in the Northum berland Dock. It is anticipated that on the 24th of June, or thereabouts, the foundation stone of a large dock, specially intended for the accommoda tion of vessels of great tonnage, will be laid by the River Tyne Commissioners at the Lowlights ; at the low, or seaward end of Shields harbour. Messrs. Stephens' steamship, trading with and between the Tyne and London, and the fleet of steamships trading between the Tyne and Hamburg and Rot terdam, owned by Messrs. John Ormeston and Co., are being absorbed into a limited liability com pany. THUNDERSTORMS.—The Vales of the Rye and Derwent, Yorkshire, were visited with heavy thunder storms on Friday afternoon. In some places the rain fell is torrents, but generally very nice showers fell, which will immensely benefit the crops. Beyond striking a few trees the lightning does not appear to have done damage. SHOCKING SUICIDE UNDER THE WHEELS OF AN ASCOT TRAIL—A shocking affair took place on Thursday evening, about half past 7 o'clock, on the Lon don and South Western Railway, at a spot nearly midway between the Richmond and Twickenham stations, when a man, about 60 Sears of age, named John Bunce, who acted as under gardener to the Duke of Buccleuch, was killed by one of the up special trains from Ascot, the wheels of the carriages nearly separating the head from the body. It appears that the driver of one of the down special trains from Waterloo, when about three quarters of a mile from Twickenham station, saw the body of the unfortunate man spr i ng froze the up rails, as the train which had killed the deceased passed along, and fall by the side of the railway. The driver consequently stopped at Twickenham, and in formed the station master, who immediately sent a body of men to the spot where the man had been killed, when it was found that his head had been nearly severed from his body. The remains were conveyed to the Crown Inn, where they await an inquest. It is stated that the deceased was seen to place himself in a lying position on the rails before the train passed.
